Sashiko Kits

(34 products)

Discover our Sashiko collection including threads, kits, samplers, fabrics, needles and thimbles! Sashiko originated in Japan about 400 years ago as a method of making clothes warmer and preserving them. By layering two or more pieces of fabric and sewing with a running stitch, small pockets of air are created, which trap warmth. Beautiful geometric patterns were stitched in undyed thread, creating the classic "cream on blue" look that we associate with Sashiko today. This Sashiko collection allows you to recreate these timeless designs with ease!

We also offer Sashiko workshops, where you can learn this traditional technique in a hands-on, guided setting.

What our customers say . . .

After years of wishing I could sew I decided to make a change by attending the Beginners Sewing Course. I LOVED IT. I experienced many mistakes but by having Maria, the expert tutor, on hand I learned loads. I ended up with a lovely Tote bag that looks snazzy. I experienced the joy that so many sewers talk about when they have sat down and produced an item from just a few scraps of material. Well worth giving it a go. I will make a few more items on my own sewing machine then sign up for another course soon.

Absolutely fantastic! I don’t usually leave reviews but after the amazing I experienced I felt I should. I was helped with a very helpful assistant during my initial phone conversation. I ordered a large selection of lovely bits and bobs late afternoon on a Thursday and received my parcel Friday morning! - I cant wait to get started on my new projects, thank you so very much everybody who delivered me such a wonderful experience.

I love ordering from Clothkits.

Every package feels like a treat because it is so well presented, even when it was just darning wool! Such lovely things available too.

Clothkits are now a constant on my go-to list for presents for some members of the family. Sure to please.

Kit, as always arrived very rapidly. As usual 2 things missing my time and sewing machine, EVERYTHING else, including very clear instructions in the beautifully presented pack.

This is the 4th of the rag dolls I've made, the first being in the 1980s. They wash well and all have survived much love frome their playmates. Thank you for a fantastic rag doll.
